\Tur"key-trot`\, n. An eccentric ragtime dance, danced with the feet well apart and with a characteristic rise on the ball of the foot, followed by a drop upon the heel. The original form, owning to the positions assumed by the dancers, is offensively suggestive. Similar dances are the {bunny hug} and {grizzly bear}, so called in allusion to the movements and the positions assumed by the partners in dancing.
